Can someone tell me which side, front or back, that you read the serial number on the string retainer. I have either S/N 06 or 90 and have never been certain which it is. Ken Albany, NY

Hello Ken, If you look at it end on with the graphite side against you and the strings facing away, it'll be the right way up (so, the bottom of the numbers would be near the brass/graphite boundary - top of the numbers at the string edge) Lol - I'm finding it remarkably hard to put such a simple thing into words... Hope you understand me anyway, and lets see some photos of your S2000!

Thank you gentlemen! I now know that I own S2000 #06 Fretless. I bought it several years ago from Mike P's(Toto) brother-in-law in Boston. I also have a '96 Custom Shop/Limited Edition Eclipse, a beauty in mint condition right down to original strings. Thanks again! Ken
